elizabeth warren, 33-36. the same thing. warren's challenge not more popular and better liked than scott brown. her challenge is to be popular enough and well-liked enough that the strong inclination of the voter will kick in. right now we see it kick in. she has taken the lead now in every poll taken since labor day. there's a real risk for scott brown. with his likability coming down, 53 to 33 is a drop for him, there's a risk he's alienating swing voters and it could kogs cost him the election. if you talk to republicans in massachusetts, the great fall back plan is this. scott brown loses this year, the governor ship is open in 2014. he's an ideal candidate to run for governor of massachusetts because of the likability. the party label is not as much of a hindrance. 53/33. he's no longer the most popular in massachusetts? someone more popular is an attorney general named martha coakley. scott brown, if he loses this race and tries the governor, good chance the opony net is martha coakley. it could be ended by the woman.

elizabeth warren is like an occupy activist. so she gets a cake from scott brown. their stunt was trying to deliver this melting sheet cake. they were so proud to have it they tweeted a picture of themselves trying to pull off the stunt. there's a long history of people trying to provoke their opponents so they do something embarrassing or damaging. if they could have that reaction while someone is filming, that would be great. what i'm about to show you is not that. it's not run of the mill politics. it's not delivering an unappealing sheet cake to your opponent which you find hilarious. this is different. here's the context. at last week's debate between scott brown and elizabeth warren, senator brown right out of the gate, before anything was discussed, first thing scott brown attacked elizabeth warren for being native american because he says, she looks white to him. >> she checked the box claiming she was a native american. clearly, she's not. >> scott brown is also a one-man racial litmus test. don't know if your great grandmother was czech? ask scott brown.
